my legs are positively dying... haha... but guess it was a pretty fun and satisfying day...

lessons as usual and somehow, i managed to finish my GP essay in school today and handed it in... :)
after lessons was total defence day... hurhur... k, so i signed up for the Defence Day Race... its sort of an amazing race style game... thought it would be fun, and it was actually quite fun... :)

We got our clues from a seemingly very pissed off Jane... hmmm... it was this gur with spiky hair... so yilan guessed it was the esplanade... and right she was... and she just wouldn't stop boasting abt it... WHATEVER yilan... haha... we had 5 members in our team, so we very well couldn't just grab a cab to get to the esplanade like we wanted... which would have given us a huge time advantage, so tt sucked... and when we got off at city hall, we could see all these groups running out madly of the train station, some went out through the city link while other groups went out to other stations... got many curious stares as we tore through city link... Haha

ok, so when we reached the amphitheatre at the esplande... we had a task... we had to send someone to the merlion and convey him a TDD message... which was so hard cuz it was so far tt u can't see a person's fingers or anything... so we had to resort to shouting... which didn't work. I Love Singapore became Protect Singapore... maybe yuan needs to cleanse his ears... as a result, we had to do a forfeit or suffer a time penalty... we did the forfeit... sing a song to passer bys and make them clap for us... yay, so we could go...

our next stop was some street in arab street... we got there and got our clue... this one was quite easy, we just had to find a shop tt sold a specific kinda silk... and we returned and hurriedly went to the next station... the Kranji War Memorial... there was a hell of a challenge which i stupidly volunteered for. i had to drink 1.5 litres of water and frog jump round the memorial... wah... drinking the water was the hard part since i had just gulped down 750ml of water b4 tt? stupid me... so i jumped, and with the water bouncing up and down my stomach, i felt like puking... but i finished it, got our next clue and ran off...

off to little india... well, it was fun cuz we got to take NEL... something I never had the chance to do before... its so much better than the line i take... hurhur... :P okie... so we exited the station and had a shock... 5 exits... which one do we go to? so we called HQ... and they just said, go find yrself... whatever... LOL... so we went and found the station masters hiding behind some pillar thing... hmmm, so helpful... then we could choose between 2 tasks, either finding and buying some food thing and finishing 3 of it, or finding out the ritual b4 entering a Hindu temple and the oldest one in Singapore... after the water, i forcefully opted for option 2... haha, and it was a good choice after i saw the food... so huge! so we asked around, and actually, we already knew the ritual... but weren't sure of the temple... so i just anyhow guessed, and somehow, i got it rite... and we got to move on... (dun ask me how to spell the temple)

next place was MITAS... prominent building... took NEL again... bad choice i reckoned, should have used bus... cuz we spent so much time going up and down and waiting for trains... at MITAS, the most spastic task awaited us yet... count the number of windows inside and outside the building... we just guessed at first, and failed... then went to count... and failed... cuz the pictures of the building didn't show us one side... haha... sad case... so no choice lor, after wasting so much time, do forfeit... was quite fun actually... i had to use a marker and draw two circles round cm's eyes, color his nose, then draw whiskers on his face and write TDD messages on his hand... haha... if i'd known we just had to do this, i'd have just surrendered earlier... BTW... there are 911 windows on MITAS... and i asked another group... and he managed to randomly guess the number correctly cuz he just thought... hmmm, police station, gotta do with 911 rite? and somehow, he got it rite... WTH!!

after tt, we reached the last station, too late... and had to turn back... sadness... then too bad... Jeanne Tan looked so tired... said she'd never ran so much in her life... LOL... Mr Chan said it was good exercise... well... i was so tired too, esp since i was the one doing the frog jumps... but i guess it was fun in the end, had good fun la... :) wish we had finished the last station though...

after tt went with cm to play tennis at yihan's house since all the balls were there... lied to the guard i was visiting a friend... borrowed the card to book the courts from yh's mum... then went to the guard house and lied i was a resident to get him to open the courts and turn on the lights... haha, i'm good... :p

then we played... was not very good since we could hardly move and the wind was swirlling... :(

played a match... and i beat him at last after losing a few times... 6-3... glad i was serving better, it really makes such a difference when u get a 1st serve % of more than 50... and i improved on my consistency, which i felt was the key... yups, so tt was good...

and i finally found what i was looking for at J8... am so happy... :)

btw, thanks for the card... so sweet of u... the design is quite nice la, since u made it yrself... :)
sorry mich, dunno what's up with Jane... guess not tmr then... some other day can rite? :) cya soon... haha... :D
and christelle dun worry too much la... just ignore... ;)
